Hi,

I just received a warning of a mailing-list robot, that a message I sent
might be infected with a virus. I'm using Evolution 1.0.8 on a RH7.3.

The message did not (to my knowledge) contain ANY attachment (it wasn't
signed either).

Below is the warning I received followed by the full source of the
message I sent as I found it in my sent folder

Hi,

The contacts is added to my contacts list

<CONTACT>
        NAME="Ann"
        DEFAULT_PROTOCOL="MSN"
        LANGUAGE=""
        TRIGGER_TYPE=""
        TRIGGER_ACTION=""
        TRIGGER_PARAM=""
        <ACCOUNT MSN>
                NAME="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
        </ACCOUNT>
</CONTACT>

the address isn't @somewhere off course, but it isn't @hotmail or @msn
either, but then again, so is my address and my contacts can see me
online...

Those addresses aren't case-sensitive right?

When all the addresses get compared to each other at startup, they're
all lower-case...

Any other suggestions?

BTW Isn't there a way to check a contact's account without opening the
contacts file? I can only edit the name, the default protocol and the
group a contact belongs to.  but when a contact changes e-mail address
or ICQ account or whatever, there appears to be no other way than to
remove the old entry and replace it by a new one. Am I missing
something?

TIA
